I got an opportunity to try out the famous sharpener everyone has been talking about. I kept thinking…is this sharpener for real? Will it really last and sharpen all types of pencils like people keep saying? Well, I’m here to say that I’m a believer!
I have now had this sharpener for about 5 months! Yep, not a couple of days, I’ve been using it heavily for 5 months now. We are never in shortage of good sharpened pencils now because of our trusty sharpener.
This is what it looks like closed:
When you open it up, it looks like this:
You squeeze the top black parts to open the entrance for the pencil and sharpen away! The metal piece pulls the pencil in as you sharpen the pencil. So easy!
I have some really helpful moms this year and they all want to help me. So once or twice a week the moms rotate taking a box of pencils home and sharpen them with this sharpener. Makes my life so much easier!! I found a tote bag in my room that they can put the box and sharpener in. The next day the pencils come back nice and sharp!
Just take a look at how sharp these are after the sharpener has been used on a daily basis for 5 months!
Would you like to pick up your own? They are very inexpensive and if you can get together with your team mates, you can order them in multiple quantities and save on each sharpener!
